| 245427 | 2004-06-17 11:17:00 | i'm a bit confused.. when i set group policies in xp.. how can i set it so it only effects a group of users say if i have a group called restricted.. how can i set it so the policies only apply to that group and not power user? |

| 245428 | 2004-06-17 11:24:00 | Go to security properties... add the group, remove power users. Make sure everyone you want is in the group. |

| 245430 | 2004-06-18 02:45:00 | after you have started the group policy editor (run gpedit.msc) expand windows settings / security settings /local policies. Then double click on the policy you want to change. You can then choose to add a user or group to that policy or remove them Hope that helps. B. |

| 245432 | 2004-06-18 06:20:00 | You have to deny acces to the gpt file under windows/system32/group policy/ for the users you don't want the policy to affect. You will have to "show all files" to see the GP folder. | Berryb (654) | ||
| 245433 | 2004-06-18 06:23:00 | Meant to add! As an example if you want the policy to affect all users except the administrator. Deny access for the admin to the gpt file. When you want to alter the policy you have to give admin access to the gpt file before you can do any alterations then deny access again. Has worked for me. |

| 245435 | 2004-06-18 07:18:00 | Group policy is mainly designed to work in a domain enviroment where the domain admin can create/add a policy to users and groups. To my knowledge there is no way to do this on a standalone PC besides the way I have described. This way there is only one policy that is enforced and can be filtered as to who is affected by access permissions to the gpt file. Maybe someone has another way but this is the only way I found to do it when I first looked at setting up group policy on a standalone for Win2000. | Berryb (654) | ||
